Sterling Workshop Trains Professionals on How to Have Successful Practices

Online, June 1, 2013 (Newswire.com) - One-hundred and fifteen practice owners and staff gathered in midtown Manhattan this month to discover how to take their practices to the next level, and beyond, at a two-day workshop conducted by Sterling, a consulting company located in Southern California.

"Practice owners are highly trained professionals who are competent in their specialties," says Kevin Wilson, Sterling CEO. "However, most are not taught the management side of running a practice in school. Our goal is to bring up their executive skills to be on par with their technical skills. Our workshops are a good place to start."

The Sterling workshop agenda was based on extensive polling of both practice owners and their staff to ensure the most relevant materials were presented to attendees. Seminars for owners included these topics:

How to Make a Successful Practice That Runs Without You Having to Be There
How to Sell Customers the Services They Need
How to Have Productive, Efficient Staff
How to Manage Your Finances and Create Wealth in Your Practice

Seminars for staff included these topics:

How to Get Much More Done in Less Time
How to Effectively Communicate on the Job
How You Can Have Fun as a Team Member with Higher Production
How to Deliver the Best Service
